The workshop begins with pre-made rectangular molds of 10x7 cm, crafted from pure white natural soap. This medium is safe and easy to work with, making it ideal for both beginners and seasoned artists. Guided by an experienced instructor, you'll delve into various soap sculpting techniques, learning to skillfully subtract material using an array of tools and utensils. Drawing inspiration from iconic Portuguese imagery such as the elegant swallow, the vibrant sardine, and the traditional heart of Viana, you'll receive step-by-step guidance to bring your artistic vision to life. The process is both educational and enjoyable, allowing you to create beautiful sculptures that reflect the cultural heritage of Porto. By the end of the session, you’ll have crafted your own unique soap sculpture, ready to be proudly displayed or given as a heartfelt gift. Each participant will take home their creation in a charming box lined with protective paper, ensuring it remains pristine. Perfect for groups, and anyone looking for a unique creative experience, this hands-on workshop invites you to explore the rich history and technique of soap carving in the heart of Porto.
